0% pass rate threatens Senwane Secondary’s legacy

Some concerned residents at Ga – Molekwa village outside Mokopane say they are worried about the legacy of Senwane Secondary School which used to perform well in the past.

Democratic Alliance members in Limpopo visited the school on Tuesday along with DA Shadow Minister of education Nomsa Marchesi.The school is among those that acquired a 0% matric pass rate in the 2018 matric results.

The school has four classroom blocks and 70% of its structure is damaged.

Residents say the school used to cater to four communities in the past but now it has only 103 learners.

One of the residents, Seferefere Molekwa says they want the legacy of the school to be protected because the school used to be one of the best performing schools in the community.

Others say the school is under-performing because it has been running for 5 years without a permanent school principal.

The DA in Limpopo says the department of education should be held accountable for the underperformance of matrics at Senwane Secondary School.
